  • Man Oh Man: Why Male Voters Shifted Right

    Man Oh Man: Why Male Voters Shifted Right
    Nov 21 2024
    In the weeks following the election, Democrats are confronting uncomfortable questions as to why much of the electorate—particularly men—abandoned the Left. This week, we're joined by Richard Reeves, President of the American Institute for Boys and Men, and Annie Lowrey, staff writer at The Atlantic. Together, we examine how the party might speak to both modern men and women, and bridge the gap between aspirational rhetoric and practical achievements.

    Left Behind: Why Democrats Lost the Working Class
    Nov 14 2024
    As Democrats try to understand their eroding support among working-class voters, we're joined by Sarah Smarsh, author of "Bone of the Bone: Essays on America by a Daughter of the Working Class.” Together, we delve into the intersection of class and identity, discuss why the Democrats' appeals to working people have fallen short, and consider how progressive politics might rebuild its relationship with working-class communities.

Reliable truth

I deeply respect Jon Stewart. He helped me laugh through my tears when George W got elected. He showed up and stayed there after 911. He gave me the courage to call into the Sean Hannity show about a flat tax (I was not allowed to ask that question and had to pivot to the environment and he kicked my ass in that conversation). I attended his Rally to Restore Sanity. Stephen Colbert's fictitious team insanity just got real.

Thank you for the impact you make and I hope you haven't stroked out yet. You've been helping us all cope for a long time. Please keep fighting the good fight, helping us all laugh when things suck, and ALWAYS being more informative on facts than most news shows..

Fair and balanced - for real!

The manner in which I can review pertinent news in a non "the sky is falling" and non promotional and opinionated way. They at least speak of the times they jest.

PS I couldn't find how to submit feedback, so just an idea.... Have Harris choose Pence or other honorable conservative for VP. Let's put our money where our mouth is and show unity, discussion, and find commonality as a basis to move forward.

Jon Stewart and Team are Demi-Gods!!!

They'd be God... if the title was not already spoken for. 😉
I just spent the last couple weeks streaming every podcast episode available and sharing some with my family. The variety of topics discussed at intelligent and precise levels are wide and wonderful. Thought provoking and marvelous!
No doubt, the best of the best episodes deal with coverage about our beloved Veterans and the eye opening struggles that are fearlessness covered.

BEST EPISODE TO DATE: When the team spent a week in DC to help get the PACT act passed. The real life boots on the ground approach was magnificent!! Imma go listen to that one again right now!
Thanks Jon and Team!!

Finally

Finally, news shared honestly and with fun honest humor. This takes me back to the good ole days when Jon Stewart was on Comedy Central. Now he’s back, on a podcast, and he’s able to be more of himself to explain and asks questions regarding the politics and the news.

Interesting view of current events

This podcast format is my favorite. An interesting conversation with intelligent people about crucial issues. And somehow the humor sprinkled through makes it easier to process.

Everything I need right now

Perfectly titled. Just press play and listen.

*Thank you to Tocarra and Kris for making me feel seen (and for making me laugh which has not been easy this past week). Thank you to the law professors for teaching me a thing or two about Originalism. And thank you Jon for always joining the conversation and defending what's right as vehemently as you do. Seeing/hearing you passionately and intellectually pose and defend strong arguments gives me life and makes me feel empowered.

Thank you

Living in Florida and having a chance to listen such wise and caring criteria coming from a politician is much appreciated. The podcast is great too! Thank you!
